1 Optimizing Standby Memory Benton H. Calhoun Jan M. Rabaey
2 Chapter Outline Memory in Standby Voltage Scaling Body Biasing Periphery
3 Memory Dominates Processor Area SRAM is a major source of static power in ICs, especially for low-power applications Special memory requirement: need to retain state in standby Metrics for standby: 1. Leakage power 2. Energy overhead for entering/leaving standby 3. Timing/area overhead BL WL BL M3 M2 M1 Q QB M6 M5 M4
4 Reminder of Design-Time Leakage Reduction Design-time techniques (Chapter 7) also impact leakage High- V TH transistors Different precharge voltages Floating BLs This chapter: adaptive methods that uniquely address memory standby power
5 The Voltage Knobs Changing internal voltages has different impact on leakage of various transistors in cell Voltage changes accomplished by playing tricks with peripheral circuits Leakage reduction (ratio) NMOS -δ δ (DIBL) 0 C 0 B1 ΔVTH k( δ + 2ψ 2ψ ) ΔVTH δ B2 0 A2 VDD + δ -δ 0 A1 VDD 0 L = 90 nm, T = 2 nm 0 0 VDD = 1 V S = 100 mv/decade + δ K = 0.2 V 1/2, 2 ψ = 0.6 V λ = Offset voltage, δ (V) 1.0 [Ref: Y. Nakagome, IBM 03]
6 Lower in Standby H Active mode L Standby mode drowsy drowsy low _SRAM SRAM Example Basic Idea: Lower lowers leakage sub-threshold leakage GIDL gate tunneling Question: What sets the lower limit? [Ref: K. Flautner, ISCA 02]
7 Limits to Scaling: DRV Data Retention Voltage (DRV): Voltage below which a bit-cell loses its data nm CMOS 0.3 = 0.4 V V 2 ( V) 0.2 = 0.18 V That is, the supply voltage at which the Static Noise Margin (SNM) of the SRAM cell in standby mode reduces to zero [Ref: H. Qin, ISQED 04] V 1 ( V) VTC 1 VTC 2
8 Power savings of DRV 1.4 mm mm IP Module of 4 kb SRAM Leakage Current ( A) Measured DRV range Supply Voltage (V) Test chip in 130 nm CMOS technology with built-in voltage regulator [Ref: H. Qin, ISQED 04] More than 90% reduction in leakage power with 350 mv standby (100 mv guard band).
9 DRV and Transistor Sizes DRV (mv) Ma Mp Mn Model Width Scaling Factor Where Ma,, Mp and Mn are the access transistor, PMOS pull-up, and NMOS pull-down, respectively [Ref: H. Qin, Jolpe 06]
10 Impact of Process Balance Stronger PMOS or NMOS (S P, S N ) in subthreshold lowers SNM even for typical cell [Ref: J. Ryan, GLSVLSI 07]
11 Impact of Process Variations on DRV DRV varies widely from cell to cell Most variations random with some systematic effects (e.g., module boundaries) DRV histogram has long tail DRV histogram for 32 Kb SRAM 130 nm CMOS 4000 DRV Spatial Distribution [Ref: H. Qin, ISQED 04] DRV (mv)
12 Impact of Process Variations on DRV DRV distribution for 90 nm and 45 nm CMOS 0.10 IEEE Frequency nm tail 45 nm tail DRV (mv) Other sources of variation: Global variations, data values, temperature (weak), bitline voltage (weak ) [Ref: J. Wang, CICC 07]
13 DRV Statistics for an Entire Memory DRV distribution is neither normal nor log-normal CDF model of DRV distribution (F DRV (x ) = 1 P(SNM < 0, = x )) Worst DRV (mv) Model Normal Log-normal Monte-Carlo IEEE Memory size σ [Ref: J. Wang, ESSCIRC 07]
14 Reducing the DRV DRV (mv) Chip DRV 1. Cell optimization 2. ECC (Error-Correcting Codes) 3. Cell optimization + ECC
15 Lowering the DRV Using ECC Data In ECC Encoder Write D P Data Correction Read ECC Data Out Decoder Error Correction Challenges Maximize correction rate Minimize timing overhead Minimize area overhead Hamming [31, 26, 3] achieves 33% power saving Reed-Muller Reed Muller [256, 219, 8] achieves 35% power saving [Ref: A. Kumar, ISCAS 07]
16 Combining Cell Optimization and ECC 1K words DRV histogram 1K words DRV histogram 1K words DRV histogram Original DRV (mv) Optimized DRV (mv) Standard Optimized Optimized+ECC Optimized DRV with Error Correction (mv) Normalized SRAM leakage current [Ref: A. Kumar, ISCAS 07] Original SRAM Optimized SRAM w/ ECC 50X mV B mV 255mV 0.2 C 0 D (V) SRAM Standby A Standard 1V B C Standard Optimized DRV MAX +100 mv DRV MAX +100 mv Optimized D wtih ECC DRV ECC_MAX +100 mv A
17 How to Approach the DRV Safely? Adjustable Power Supply V CTRL voltages Reset Sub-V TH Controller Failure Detectors Core Cells Using canary cells to set the standby voltage in closed loop [Ref: J. Wang, CICC 07]
18 How to Approach the DRV Safely? Histogram Less power SRAM cell Failure Threshold More reliable Multiple sets of canary cells Canary Replica & test circuit IEEE 2007 DRV 128KbSRAM ARRAY Mean DRV of Canary Cells (V) V CTRL (V) 0.6% area overhead in 90 nm test chip [Ref: J. Wang, CICC 07]
19 Raising V SS Raise bit-cellv SS in standby (e.g., 0 to 0.5 V) Lower BL voltage in standby (e.g., 1.5 to 1 V) 0 is 0.5 V Lower voltage less gate leakage and GIDL Lower V DS less sub- V TH leakage (DIBL) Negative V BS reduces sub-v TH leakage [Ref: K. Osada, JSSC 03] 1.0 V WL = 0 V 1.0 V 1.5 V V
20 Body Biasing Reverse Body Bias (RBB) for leakage reduction Move FET source (as in raised V SS ) Move FET body Example: Whenever WL is low, apply RBB Active Standby BL V PB WL BLB WL 0 V,V SS 0 V 2 V SS V PB,V NB 0 V V NB - [Ref: H. Kawaguchi, VLSI Symp. 98]

22 Combining Raised V SS and RBB BL V PB WL BLB V NB V SS 28X savings in standby power reported [Ref: L. Clark, TVLSI 04]
23 Voltage Scaling in and Around the Bitcell Large number of reported techniques [1] K. Osada et al. JSSC 2001 [2] N. Kim et al. TVLSI 2004 [3] H. Qin et al. ISQED 2004 [4] K. Kanda et al.

Agarwal et al. JSSC 2003 [16] K. Kanda et al. JSSC 2004
24 Periphery Breakdown Periphery leakage often not ignorable Wide transistors to drive large load capacitors Low- V TH transistors to meet performance specs Chapter 8 techniques for logic leakage reduction equally applicable, but Task made easier than for generic logic because of well-defined structure and signal patterns of periphery e.g., decoders output 0 in standby Lower peripheral can be used, but needs fast level-conversion to interface with array
25 Summary and Perspectives SRAM standby power is leakage-dominated Voltage knobs are effective to lower power Adaptive schemes must account for variation to allow outlying cells to function Combined schemes are most promising e.g., Voltage scaling and ECC Important to assess overhead! Need for exploration and optimization framework, in the style we have defined for logic
